The idea that Chris is afraid of white people influencing black people into losing their "blackness" is pretty clearly true, even if their method of doing so is presented in a very literal and terrifying sense. Why is Andre's apparent choice to change his clothing and start dating an old white lady a problem? Consider the black people for a moment and think on if they weren't actually mindfucked. Would their lifestyles be wrong or just too "white" for Chris

So in this SMG hypnotism-makes-subtext-into-hallucinations world, what does the doctor performing brain surgery while Chris is tied to a chair represent

SuperMechagodzilla posted:That if the Armitage family saw Get Out, they would be its vocal fans. It's not saying that they are conservatives, it's saying that they fundamentally cannot understand the black experience because they have entirely different lives even if they do not perceive themselves to be racist.

Sir Kodiak posted:Can you clarify what you mean by co-opting black culture? I saw this opening night, so I might not be recalling well, but my recollection is that the black bodies/white brains people acted stereotypically white: Logan King walked around in old-white-guy apparel, didn't know how to fist pound, etc. What's the cultural co-opting? They can't actually do it, that's the joke. "Black is very in right now." -dresses in a straw boater, does a little dance-

Sir Kodiak posted:What character in the movie do you believe is interested in making hip-hop about the Dow Jones, or retirement pension funds, or whatever, and what in the movie led you to believe that? Because I don't see it at all. How about the blind art dealer who wants to see pictures with "soul" or whatever
